Recommended Posts

update guys.. heard back from my guy.. Not sure why factories have been giving us such ridiculous quotes to get this made. Paulw's sample mineral crystal is floating around still and going to another factory for a hopefully better quote... As always.. I'll keep you all updated.

Who knew it would take this long to get a f-ing dome sapphire crystal made! Stay tuned!

UPDATE:

Looks like I've finally got a Sample crystal made! They're sending it to me by the end of this week.. I won't be able to mount it into my 253 till I get back to spain from the U.S. but I'll be sure to take some detailed pictures of how it looks. If the fit is perfect, I'll consult with you guys here, and see how many I'll need to order.

The crystal is ssapphire with single-sided (inner) AR as per GEN. Not sure about prices still, but that depends on the number of people interested. I'm hoping to get the price as low as possible.

This is the furthest step forward in months, but it looks like the wheels are turning on this project!

Once the crystal is on my pam, I'll be taking a lot of photos to share with you guys. If it ends up fitting, I'll get quotes and organize how payment can be carried out.

I am sure you will but can you take pics before its fitted. Mainly laying on its outside so you can get a view of the thickness and edge and way the crystal moves round towards the centre of the glass inside :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Thanks again mate :)

Of course. I'll also take dimensions with calipers. The dimensions that offshore was able to take with his calipers were:

diameter: 37mm

Height (with dome): 4.1mm

thickness: 2mm

Update:

Hey guys, Received the prototype crystal. It looks excellent as far as quality. The single sided AR is very nice. No time to take pics and I'm off to New Orleans in a few Hours. Once I get back I'll take caliper measurements and lots of pictures and try to fit it on my watch once I'm back home in Madrid.

I hope it's a perfect fit!!!!!! :thumbsupsmileyanim:
